(4 Rue de l'Epée in Brussels, Belgium)

Havana restaurant is action central when it comes to drinking, dining and dancing. But just getting... there is worth the trip: you go to the massive Palais de Justice, take the glazed public lift on the right, gaining some of the best views in the city en route, and arrive at the Place Breughel. Wow. Everybody starts with one of the Mojito Cubanos, famous with good reason, at one of the three on-site bars, then moves into the Red Room or The Loft for authentic, modern Cuban/Latino cuisine. The tapas menu makes it possible to assemble a jillion little dishes to share as a leisurely meal, or enjoy serious main courses like chicken or beef fajitas, or oven grilled goat with veg and fried potato balls. The short wine list includes Mexican and South American wineries. Check out the cigar menu before enjoying an evening of dancing in the disco, either under the spell of one of the DJs or to live music. The décor is reminiscent of the Cuba of Hemingway, with vibrant red paneling, gauzy curtains, leather banquettes, and loads of moody mirrors and twinkling lights in the Red Room, or airy high beamed ceilings and warm natural colours in the loft. On arrival, please inform the restaurant that your booking was made via Toptable. Opening hours: Thu 7pm - 3am Fri -Sat 7pm - 7am Sun 2pm - 11pm Mon - Wed : closed all day [moreless]

(25 Rue de la Régence in Brussels, Belgium)

Sister Act restaurant in the Sablon quarter of Brussels, neatly set between the Palais de Justice an...d the Place Royale, is the creation of some passionate amateurs who wanted to make a contemporary restaurant to their own taste and esthetic vision. It worked. Beautifully retrofitted into a 19th century building, Sister Act covers two spacious and comfortable stories, flooded with light and urban ambience in the day and full of cosy lounge ambience at night. The smart décor is themed in tones of paprika. Downstairs, an open fireplace beckons while upstairs the beckoning is the work of club armchairs – the two are linked by a stunning staircase. The cuisine is epicurian, seasonal and cosmopolitan. Menus divide into classics, seasonal, and changing menus. Dishes include starter of red tuna tartare, main of American minute steak with frites, and dessert of crème brûlée. The passionate amateur success also applies to the big international wine list. On arrival, please inform the restaurant that your booking was made via toptable. Opening hours: Mon - Sat 12pm - 2:30pm & 7:30pm - 11pm Sun: closed all day [moreless]
